We’re back with another episode in our “Vs” series with two of the funniest comedies of our generation with Superbad vs Pineapple Express. We’ve rewatched both films and will discuss our favorite elements, characters, and moments from each movie. At the end of the pod we’ll reveal which movie we like more.

Superbad follows 3 seniors (Michael Cera, Jonah Hill, and Christopher Mintz-Plasse) during their last days of high school as they try to get alcohol for a party they’ve been invited to. Knowing it’s their last chance to get laid before college, the boys get desperate and a night full of chaos ensues.

Pineapple Express is a stoner comedy about a man (Seth Rogan) and his drug dealer (James Franco) on the run from a drug lord after one of them witnesses a murder at the drug lord’s residence. The guys scramble all over the city trying to find a way out of this messy situation.

To celebrate Friday the 13th we’re back with another entry in our VS series with Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter VS A Nightmare on Elm Street. Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger are two of the most recognizable characters in film history, known for murdering teenagers in unique ways and defining the slasher genre in horror films. In the fourth entry of the “Friday” series, Jason returns to Camp Crystal Lake from the morgue and finds another group of drunk teenage victims. This film was intended to be “The Final Chapter” while A Nightmare on Elm Street, released later that year, introduced a new horror icon. The first “Nightmare” movie follows four teenagers who are being picked off one by one through their nightmares by a man from their town’s past.

Rules (Horror Edition):

Our versus series involves two opponents recommending a movie to each other. By the end of the podcast they decide which movie they like more, the movie they recommended…or the movie their opponent recommended. We discuss our favorite elements and moments from each movie before we RATE and compare both movies in four categories: SLASHER, KILLS, SURVIVORS, and EFFECTS. Stick around to see which movie comes out on top!
